We’re thrilled to welcome artist Ýr Jóhannsdóttir, better known as Ýrúrarí (previously), for our first Colossal Workshop of 2024. During this one-hour session on January 27, Ýrúrarí will offer insight into her process and teach the needle-felting technique she often uses in her creative mending projects that transform sweaters into friends. The techniques are suitable for complete beginners, so just grab a needle and some wool and join in.

Register today to reserve your seat, and if you’re a Colossal Member, don’t forget to use the code in your account to receive $5 off.
